The PDF file contains embedded JavaScript streams, flagged by multiple heuristics as suspicious. The ML classifier strongly indicates maliciousness. The embedded JavaScript is heavily obfuscated, but appears to be designed to download and execute a second-stage payload from the provided URL. The presence of obfuscated JavaScript and an embedded URL strongly suggests a downloader or droppper functionality.

Heuristics 4

  • Suspicious extracted artifact medium EXTRACTED_FILE_STATIC_TRIAGE
    One or more files extracted from inside this sample matched static suspicious-content checks such as script obfuscation, encoded payload blobs, packed data, or execution/download terms.
  • JavaScript action low PDF_JAVASCRIPT
    PDF contains a /JavaScript action. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • Embedded JS stream low PDF_JS
    PDF references a /JS stream. Generic JavaScript is common in benign forms; specific dangerous APIs are scored by separate rules.
  • Embedded URL info EMBEDDED_URL
    One or more URLs were extracted from the document. The URL itself is not a detection — see the per-URL labels for which channel (macro, JS, link annotation, document body, ...) reached each URL.
